Sinossi
Ravishing, extravagant, flirtatious Annie Macleoud and kind, plain, virtuous Myrtle Duns cannot remember a time when they were not the most loving, rivalrous and unlikely of friends, unflinchingly loyal to each other in the harsh climate of the Scottish fishing village which is their home. Their extraordinary friendship has been tested many times, most of all when, against all expectations, it is Myrtle who embarks upon the great and passionate love affair of her life, while the beautiful Annie finds only disappointment.
Yet Myrtle and Annie approach middle age together, making their slow and uncertain progress towards happiness, fishermen's wives forever gazing out to the unforgiving sea, until a horrifying accident destroys their equilibrium. Instead of finding strength from each other, however, a deep and terrible rift opens up between them, exposing all the secret sadness, the jealousy and betrayal each has carefully hidden over the years.

Recensione
A slow-burning bonfire of a novel ... a subtle, powerful story (MAIL ON SUNDAY)
An elegantly plotted tale which owes something to Aesop and something to Jane Austen (SUNDAY TELEGRAPH)
She writes with great confidence and poise ... Angela Huth, with all manner of small observations, captures the nuances and the moodiness and the difficulties of an almost sibling closeness (SPECTATOR)
Huth displays exquisite control of her narrative in drifting from childhood past to a present riven with the constricting society of the village, and provides an entirely satisfying conclusion. (DAILY MAIL)
